The Corner House Bistro

Wife and I went for our anniversary dinner. I had steak and scallops and my wife had steak and shrimp. The meals were delicious. Steak was cooked the way we like it and was juicy. The seafood was flavourful too.
Onto dessert. We got the pumpkin cheesecake. It was probably one of the best I have ever had. Homemade too.
I also had the Irish coffee which was delicious.
Overall it was a great meal and the restaurant itself is a small dining area with great ambience.

What a gem! The service was awesome and the food was delicious. We had the sagnaki, pasta, sole and veal. Portions were generous, fresh and flavourful.
Atmosphere was a little dark and wished there was more options in the menu, but it was delicious

We have gone to this restaurant several times over the years, and every time we have had a most wonderful experience, starting from the greeting and ambiance, to the great menu and wine list. The food itself is quality cooked with passion, and you can taste it.
I have had the same servers each time I went, and I cannot imagine better service from better staff anywhere. Prices are in line with what you would expect from a higher end restaurant, but did not break the bank. I can’t wait until we next return there.

Great spot … Personal service, good food, and some of the best cheesecake you can find. Definitely the areas best fine dinning.

I have to admit that I am a bit biased because I live within walking distance of this venue. That aside, I can’t image that I am going to properly capture the true atmosphere, ambiance and sincere love that this place has and regularly does generate for me on every visit.
I have been going to the Corner House with my wife for about 4 years now. The mood of the place has changed a bit over that time, but for those who don’t live within walking distance, let me assure you that the drive to the nether regions of Keswick proper are well worth it.
What it is: A classic small family restaurant that serves impeccably designed food at a reasonable price. It is a local staple, a place where regulars who enjoy high quality cuisine go to enjoy the ideas and execution of the house chefs on a monthly and even weekly basis. Picture the best restaurant in Toronto without the attitude, drama and aloof wait staff. You’re getting close, but it still doesn’t capture it.
What it is Not: A stuffy, snooty high class eatery where you have to look down your nose at the wait staff, owners and fellow guests. This is a place of food and friendship. If you are not prepared to get a hug when you enter and a hug when you leave, go somewhere else. This restaurant is not for the shy or faint of heart. It is for those that are willing to declare their love of great food; great wine and excellent company and live the experience out loud.
You will get out of the Corner House what you put into it. It is the best of both worlds. World class fine dining by the beautify Lake Simcoe, and a venue small and intimate enough to attract the likes of Bob De Niro on a regular basis. He comes for the Pumpkin Cheese Cake like the rest of us caught in its magical spell.
FYI Christine makes the Pumpkin Cheesecake just like she makes all the deserts.
From scratch.

Fresh.

The level of commitment to food and taste is what sets this place apart. The dedication from the owners to high quality food, great service, and a down to earth attitude lift this establishment above and beyond what you might expect from restaurants in the area, and fine dining establishments at large.
The Corner House is more than a restaurant. It’s a refuge. A place where you can go and feel assured that the food, the staff and the service will be top notch, so that all those worries can be lifted from your shoulders, and you can focus on forgetting the world, and enjoying the creations set before you.
